Yesterday’s confirmation of the official Sonic comics being cancelled was a heavy blow to a lot of us. Over 20 years’ worth of storytelling and mythology unique in the Sonic franchise has disappeared with little more than a quiet murmur. Our project isn’t going anywhere, and despite our rocky release schedule I hope we can help somewhat fill the void left in many a fan’s hearts. However, we fans are not the only victims here. While we’ve been desperately waiting for some sort of news regarding the comic’s fate these last six months, the creative team in charge of the comic has been struggling to make ends meet without their main source of income. The cancellation was as abrupt to them as it was to us, probably even more so because we at least had half a year to let the idea sink in. For many years they’ve delivered us quality writing and artwork that made Archie Sonic as enjoyable as it was, and now it’s our time to return the favor. Below you can see the links to several of the Archie team’s Patreon pages (the ones I could find at least, please let us know if we missed any). Make a pledge if you can, or at least help spread the word. No matter how little of an amount you can donate, every bit will help them. The creation of Archie Sonic Online in the first place is proof of what fans are capable of when they band together under a common goal. Now, we need to do the same thing for the sake of the Archie team and their families. We implore you all to do the right thing, not as fellow Archie fans, but as fellow human beings who wish each other the best in life.
